Collectible coins are items of numismatic interest, often valued for their historical significance, rarity, and condition. Within the United States, coins such as the 1875 P 5 (5-cent piece or nickel) are notable examples, particularly patterns made for testing designs prior to official release. These patterns, often struck in small quantities, can be highly sought after by collectors due to their limited availability and unique features, making them significant pieces in U.S. coin history.
